Staatusedega

Staatusedega is an Estonian grammatical form formed by adding the comitative suffix -ga to the plural noun staatused (statuses). The resulting expression means “with statuses” and is used to indicate accompaniment or inclusion of statuses in another element. It is a standard example of the comitative construction in Estonian grammar, where the suffix -ga marks accompaniment rather than a separate case.

In use, staatusedega appears in technical, data-related, and descriptive contexts to specify that statuses are part of or attached to something, such as a file, dataset, or document. It is not a distinct concept; rather, it is a morphological form used to convey the idea of statuses being present or included.

Common contexts include descriptions of datasets, metadata, or interfaces that handle status information. For instance, one might say “Fail koos staatusedega” (a file with statuses) or “Andmestik koos staatusedega metaandmed” (a dataset with statuses metadata). The construction is transparent to speakers of Estonian and is understood similarly to other comitative forms like “koos” plus a noun in the comitative.

Notes on usage: staatusedega is typically found in written, technical, or administrative language. In everyday speech, speakers may opt for simpler phrasing depending on regional variation, but staatusedega remains correct and widely understood.
